Scores

Mostly As

Motley the Jester, as played by Paul Valentine in Series 3 of Knightmare (1989).

You would get on best with MOTLEY! A quirky sense of humour and energetic nature would make you two best buds, and you have a craving for making people smile, although you tend to get yourself into trouble a lot.

Mostly Bs

Lissard, Lord Fear's minion, played by Cliff Barry in Series 8 of Knightmare.

You would get on best with LISSARD! You tend to follow the crowd and stick to what you are used to, and like to come out on top when you can. At least you two would stay together rather than being under someone!

Mostly Cs

Treguard the Dungeon Master, played by Hugo Myatt. As seen in Series 4 of Knightmare (1990).

You would get on best with TREGUARD! Old fashioned and serious, your minds would probably create a new form of intelligence, and you would fight side by side for what is right. Good on you!

Mostly Ds

Lord Fear, the Leader of the Opposition, as played by Mark Knight at the end of Knightmare Series 6 (1992).

You would get on best with LORD FEAR! You like to lead, though if people don't like you they are good enough for you anyway. You two would get on like a house on fire, and cause as much.

Mostly Es

Gretel the Maid, played by Audrey Jenkinson in Series 2 of Knightmare (1988).

You would get on best with GRETEL! You are fairly vain and scatty, but you mean well. So long as you can agree on the latest fashions you two would probably be lifelong friends, if you don't forget each others' names.

Mostly Fs

Elita the Cavern Elf, played by Stephanie Hesp in Series 5 of Knightmare (1991).

You would get on best with ELITA! You try to be hard faced and cruel, but you aren't that bad really. You two would cause mischief and chaos wherever you went, but since you would be having a laugh together it wouldn't really matter, would it, Faceache?

Mostly Gs

Fatilla the Hun, played by Michael Cule in Series 4 of Knightmare (1990).

You would get on best with FATILLA! If you can cook then don't worry. If you can't, make sure you know how to use a telephone so you can order a takeaway, and you have strength enough to fight for the chips!
